Sessions focus on skills you can try between meetings. Her practice includes work on attachment issues and communication problems. Christina has experience supporting first responders and survivors of sexual assault.
She aims to help people rebuild routines, manage strong emotions, and find clearer ways to connect with others.

These methods are used to teach coping skills, reduce unhelpful thinking, and build emotional regulation.
Christina adapts techniques to each person’s situation and goals. People who meet with her can expect a calm, respectful atmosphere and practical steps for change. She helps people break problems into manageable parts and track progress over time.
Scheduling and formats are tailored to what fits a person’s life.
Therapy approaches and online options that fit your life
Christina uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in online work. CBT looks at thought and behavior patterns and teaches practical tools to change them, which helps with anxiety, sleeping problems, and depression. ACT focuses on values and actions - it helps people accept difficult feelings while building a life that matches what matters to them.Finding the right approach is a team effort. Christina will work with each person to decide which methods match their goals and daily routine. She adjusts techniques over time based on what is helpful and what feels doable in real life.
Online therapy is offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care more flexible. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues matter. Phone sessions can fit a busy schedule or use less bandwidth. Chat and messaging support shorter check-ins and written reflections between sessions. These options help people access therapy around work, caregiving, or other commitments.
